Admiral in the Azure World

Chapter 46 Mirage Changes
Purple glow appears from the horizon on the east side of Gloria Island.The rays of light suddenly covered half of the sky. Under the influence of the rays of light, the dark clouds and rain exuded a fantasy color that only appears in magic novels.

At this time, the Blue Federation has just entered summer, and the last rain of spring is falling on Gloriosa Island.

When Zixia appeared, Huang Jiang was squatting in the office, with a bowl of duck egg and lean meat porridge in front of him.

It's not like he hasn't tried making preserved eggs himself. After all, many senior time travelers have done this.But I don’t know if there was something wrong with his method, and a bunch of little ducks appeared in the Deacon Mansion.

Now, he is very glad that the preserved egg experiment failed.

Today's dinner was recommended by Saratoga.Lexington also enjoys watching her sister show off her skills.But Jiajia didn't seem to be able to understand the description on her sister's recipe.In her duck egg lean meat porridge...all the duck eggs are whole...

Well, it's understandable. After all, Gaga has never been in the kitchen, and Lexington is responsible for all the food in the Li family.

But what Huang Jiang can't understand is...why Saratoga...

Why doesn’t Saratoga peel the shells off its eggs?
With a strange feeling, Huang Jiang used his homemade chopsticks to pick out an egg from the porridge and peeled it open under Jia Jia's expectant eyes.

He took a bite.

Gan.

Or salted duck eggs.

"Is it delicious?" Jiajia asked expectantly.

Huang Jiang grinned, half smiling.

At this moment, the purple glow passed through the office window, dyeing the simple room a dreamy purple.

Huang Jiang immediately realized that something was wrong.He quickly stood up and walked to the window in three steps at a time.

He was stunned.

This is a scene he has never seen before.This phenomenon has never been experienced first-hand, neither on Earth nor in Mark-Irma's memory.

Like an aurora, the purple clouds spread across the clouds and slowly spread, gradually covering the entire sky driven by some kind of power.

At the junction of the sea and the sky, the horizon has turned deep purple.

The islanders noticed the changes outside and walked out of their houses one after another, pointing to the east.

Huang Jiang saw several people from the Merchant Alliance walking out of the room where they were staying and standing in the courtyard of the Deacon's Mansion, whispering to each other and discussing something.

He realized that this was a great opportunity.

This is the best time for him to show his strength to the outside world.

Although he had never seen it personally, Huang Jiang found something similar to this phenomenon from Mark Irma's knowledge. - Mirage Tide.

This is a physiological phenomenon that occurs every five or six years in the mirage mother body.

During a mirage tide, the reproductive efficiency of the mirage mother will be at its peak.Countless mirages will emerge from its body, roaring and rushing towards the nearest food.One mirage stronghold was simply not enough to satisfy thousands of mirages, and they surged towards the borders of the Federation like a tidal wave.

Mirage tides have occurred on other fronts, but I didn’t expect that this time it would be the turn of the West Wind Drift.

This is a crisis.

But it's even more of an opportunity.

Huang Jiang immediately ordered Lexington and Saratoga to release their reconnaissance planes.When issuing the order, Huang Jiang was full of luck.Fortunately, the batch of resources purchased at that time arrived at Gloria Island a few days ago.He now has 1000 blocks of aluminum resources on his back, which can temporarily meet the combat needs of the two aircraft carrier ladies.

And the next batch of aluminum is already on the way.This he exchanged with Anders using his steel quota for the coming months.

Without this batch of resources, he could only choose to take everyone like Salinger and flee to the mainland, giving up the newly established steel group and most of the supplies on the island.

The mirage threat is everywhere.

This is the tragedy of the frontier islands.Because they never know whether the island they worked hard to build will be able to withstand the next attack of the mirage.

The two sisters' reconnaissance plane roared out of the window of the Deacon's Mansion and flew towards the east.

The people on the island saw the carrier-based aircraft flying out of the deacon's house, and their panic was temporarily soothed.

As long as the sea soul is there, there is no danger in Jialan Island for the time being.

The news from the front has not yet come, but Huang Jiang is making plans in his heart.Mirage Tide is an AOE skill, and it is unavoidable for all islands close to Westerly Drift, so he does not have to worry about all the mirages coming towards Gloria Island. It can even be said that Gloria Island is safer than other islands. .

After all, to the north of Gloria Island is the iron ore island Sutie Island, and to the southwest of Gloria Island is the oil island Wengzhu Island. These two resource islands are definitely the natural destinations for mirages.

What Gloria Island will face will be the group of mirages squeezed into the middle of the mirage tide.Their general strength should not be strong, but their numbers are definitely numerous.

So you can’t sit still and wait for death!

When the news from the front comes, Lexington and Saratoga will also set off immediately.

The tactic of two aircraft carriers in one wave like the battle on Cycad Island is no longer suitable for use when the mirage occupies an absolute number.

Huang Jiang was thinking, his brain was running fast.

Taking advantage of the gap between the two aircraft carriers returning to replenish resources, Mirage's team was able to advance more than ten nautical miles.

But now, what they lack the most is distance.

Because the only ship girls fighting were Lexington and Saratoga, it would take a long time for them to clear out such a huge mirage army, but now there was not enough time. He had to rely on distance to gain time. The distance pushed by a mirage of a small gap is unacceptable to the Huangjiang River!
The two aircraft carriers cannot attack at the same time, and their suppression of the mirage cannot stop for a moment. Therefore, when one carrier girl returns to the island to replenish resources, the other carrier girl must bombard without stopping, in an alternating manner.

A roar came from far away.

This is the roar of the mirage mother.It generally makes few sounds, but a large population during a mirage tide can place a very heavy burden on its body, which can exacerbate the pain of giving birth.

Such a roar really triggered the mirage tide on the West Wind Drift front!

Such news soon appeared on the Haiwu Forum.

Milton, the Tulip Governor, and Daudet Gustave, the Starry Governor, jointly issued a mirage red alert.All deacons are required to set off to support the border deacons on the front line of Zephyr Drift.

They mainly mentioned Sutie Island and Wengzhu Island.Gloria Island is only mentioned briefly, and even Jimu Island appears much more frequently in the article than Gloria Island.

Huang Jiang chuckled, not complaining too much. This was not Milton's deliberate targeting of Gloria Island, or you couldn't tell if he was targeting it, because according to past experience, in the large-scale invasion of the West Wind Drift Front, Gloria Island is an existence that has been abandoned by default.

But isn't this better?
When everyone thought that Gloria Island was about to fall again, he defended it.

Such an impact would have a greater impact than if he held someone's ear and repeated "Gloria Island is safe" a hundred times.
